It is obvious that the SR doesn’t want the public to see any of my previous comments regarding the CONDON/HOGAN Joke because it is embarrassing not only to them but also to that paragon of truth and virtue Shelia Chase. I could go into great detail but I’ll leave you with some of the screenshots from this story back in 2013.

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving, I sure did, and one of the many things I was thankful for was the hot shower I was able to take last night. With my electricity back on I’ll try and do some catch-up.

As I mentioned in my last blog post I received the same Public Records Response from the City that the media did during the Pre-Thanksgiving Document Dump. I will deal with what is actually in the documents in my next blog post (it is a treasure trove of good info for the public), but I thought it important to provide this information to demonstrate how the hide the records game is played and some of the steps that have to be taken from the offensive perspective as a requester.

The first thing I want to point out is this SR Article in which City Council President Ben Stuckart threatens an investigation by the City Council.

This of course would be an excellent idea and the City Council by virtue of the City Charter does have the power to investigate this matter including the power of subpoena and taking testimony under oath. As an interesting side note in an email I sent to a City Council Member 0n Sept. 23, 2015 I stated this regarding the Cotton/Straub situation.

As you know I have considerable information I will make available to an independent investigation which is entirely within the purview of the City Council. As you know the City Council has investigative authority including subpoena power.”

I received this response later that day.

So here we are today with all the political BS flying both ways, and the truth still hidden.

Here is the big, big problem for the City Council actually doing the right thing and conducting an investigation. With respect to getting answers to the lack of transparency and withholding of Public Records past the election, the key figure in that regard is the City Clerk Terri Pfister who is also the City’s Public Records Officer. http://apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=42.56.580

Ms. Pfister is the individual I’ve been dealing with as has the media regarding PRRs. She is also the City Clerk who works very closely with the City Council and is present during all their meetings. The question is does the City Council have the guts to subpoena all of Terri Pfister’s records call her before the City Council put her under oath and question her regarding pressure from the Condon Administration to withhold information past the election. Big dilemma for the City Council…eh? Beyond the Terri Pfister issue a legitimate investigation would also bring to light a lack of oversight by the Public Safety Committee, as well as the City Council itself, so the Las Vegas odds on a real and legitimate City Council investigation are pretty long.

My next blog post will be entitled “The Doxing of David” where I will provide some good info far beyond that supplied by the SR which paints some interesting pictures of the Condon Administration.

Well amazingly I received a small part of my FOIA the same time the SR did, which really brings up even more questions regarding the City hiding thins from the public including private citizens doing FOIAs. I’m still without electricity and am running from batteries so I will deal with this when AVISTA finally completes their mission. Suffice it to say…I TOLD YOU SO! Now the question is did the SR spike the story until after the election. Lots more to come. The mention of Lt. Mark Griffiths in the SR story is important please refer back to my previous stories here and on Twitter where I provided copies of text messages between Cotton and her friend at SPD.

One of the ways to identify a phony and a liar is to see how they try to clean things up when they are caught in a lie.

Here is a perfect example:

Notice how Andrew waited until he thought no one was looking, went back and edited his post taking out any mention of him taking his boy and dog to a hotel, and deleted his post about the people in the hotel he was supposedly staying at. Most people don’t notice that he does this quite often especially when he is confronted with his whoopers.

A hero Sled is not, but he is doing his best to convince people he is. Smart folks won’t buy his constant BS, people that think he is so great will end up like every fraud victim does…going down with the fraud.
